The pharmaceutical industry has taken great interest of late in the study of polymorphism and solvatomorphism in its materials, since a strong interest in the phenomena has developed now that regulatory authorities understand that the nature of the structure adopted by a given compound upon crystallization can exert a profound effect on its solid-state properties. For a given material, the heat capacity, conductivity, volume, density, viscosity, surface tension, diffusivity, crystal... 

Q.9.4 Heat capacity measures the amount of heat required to heat a certain amount of material, and specific heat capacity is the heat capacity divided by the mass of the material. Is heat capacity an intensive or extensive property Is specific heat capacity an intensive or extensive property Why ... 

The distribution of electromagnetic field within the materials to be processed is determined by various factors, such as effective dielectric and magnetic parameters of the materials that are dependent on temperature and microstracture, dimensions and properties of the applicator, and the degree of matching between the microwave source, transmission line, and applicator. Consequently, the distribution of the electromagnetic field will affect the distribution of temperature within the sintered object. Of course, other factors, such as effective absorption properties, heat capacity, and thermal conductivity of the materials, as well as heat transportation characteristics of the materials and the furnaces, wiU also have their specific effects. Ultimately, all these will be reflected by the properties of the final sintered products. While detailed theoretical elaboration of microwave sintering can be found in Ref. [39], a brief description will be presented in this section. 

This does not look like a very deep statement but it actually is - and it helps us solve the problem. Our experience and physical measurements tell us that heat -the amount of heat in a body - is determined by the following three quantities (1) the mass, m (the bigger the body the more the heat), (2) the property of the material called heat capacity, Cp, and (3) the difference in the temperature before and after the heat transfer, AT. Translated into physical chemical symbols this sentence now reads as... 

The characteristics of carbon fiber include mechanical properties (strength, modulus, extension), thermal properties (heat capacity, thermal conductivity, thermal expansion), chemical properties (oxidation, corrosion), electrical and magnetic properties. In a word, carbon fiber is an excellent enhanced material, which has high strength, high modulus, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, conductivity and diathermancy. The characteristics are mainly reflected in the following aspects (Li, 2005) ... 

The most direct effect of defects on tire properties of a material usually derive from altered ionic conductivity and diffusion properties. So-called superionic conductors materials which have an ionic conductivity comparable to that of molten salts. This h conductivity is due to the presence of defects, which can be introduced thermally or the presence of impurities. Diffusion affects important processes such as corrosion z catalysis. The specific heat capacity is also affected near the melting temperature the h capacity of a defective material is higher than for the equivalent ideal crystal. This refle the fact that the creation of defects is enthalpically unfavourable but is more than comp sated for by the increase in entropy, so leading to an overall decrease in the free energy... 

Material properties can be further classified into fundamental properties and derived properties. Fundamental properties are a direct consequence of the molecular structure, such as van der Waals volume, cohesive energy, and heat capacity. Derived properties are not readily identified with a certain aspect of molecular structure. Glass transition temperature, density, solubility, and bulk modulus would be considered derived properties. The way in which fundamental properties are obtained from a simulation is often readily apparent. The way in which derived properties are computed is often an empirically determined combination of fundamental properties. Such empirical methods can give more erratic results, reliable for one class of compounds but not for another. 

A wide variety of physical properties are important in the evaluation of ionic liquids (ILs) for potential use in industrial processes. These include pure component properties such as density, isothermal compressibility, volume expansivity, viscosity, heat capacity, and thermal conductivity. However, a wide variety of mixture properties are also important, the most vital of these being the phase behavior of ionic liquids with other compounds. Knowledge of the phase behavior of ionic liquids with gases, liquids, and solids is necessary to assess the feasibility of their use for reactions, separations, and materials processing. Even from the limited data currently available, it is clear that the cation, the substituents on the cation, and the anion can be chosen to enhance or suppress the solubility of ionic liquids in other compounds and the solubility of other compounds in the ionic liquids. For instance, an increase in allcyl chain length decreases the mutual solubility with water, but some anions ([BFJ , for example) can increase mutual solubility with water (compared to [PFg] , for instance) [1-3]. While many mixture properties and many types of phase behavior are important, we focus here on the solubility of gases in room temperature IFs. 

The semiconducting properties of the compounds of the SbSI type (see Table XXVIII) were predicted by Mooser and Pearson in 1958 228). They were first confirmed for SbSI, for which photoconductivity was found in 1960 243). The breakthrough was the observation of fer-roelectricity in this material 117) and other SbSI type compounds 244 see Table XXIX), in addition to phase transitions 184), nonlinear optical behavior 156), piezoelectric behavior 44), and electromechanical 183) and other properties. These photoconductors exhibit abnormally large temperature-coefficients for their band gaps they are strongly piezoelectric. Some are ferroelectric (see Table XXIX). They have anomalous electrooptic and optomechanical properties, namely, elongation or contraction under illumination. As already mentioned, these fields cannot be treated in any detail in this review for those interested in ferroelectricity, review articles 224, 352) are mentioned. The heat capacity of SbSI has been measured from - 180 to -l- 40°C and, from these data, the excess entropy of the ferro-paraelectric transition... 

This is because the heat capacity of a wall of finite thickness is several orders of magnitude higher than that of the hot combustion products. However, some researchers did observe a small effect of the properties of the wall [17] on the quenching distance. This was interpreted in terms of some residual catalytic activity of the wall surface, poisoned by the combustion products from the preceding experiments [18]. With respect to this explanation, the surface of any material moistened through the condensation of the water vapor produced in the reaction is supposed to have very similar, low activity. 

We saw in Section 3.2 that the knowledge of low-temperature specific heat is extremely important to understand the physical properties of a solid. The measurements of heat capacity are not, conceptually, more difficult than those of thermal conductivity. On the contrary, some problems such as the anisotropy of materials are not present, and the shape of the sample to be measured is usually unimportant. Nevertheless, from a technical... 

In contrast to crystalline solids characterized by translational symmetry, the vibrational properties of liquid or amorphous materials are not easily described. There is no firm theoretical interpretation of the heat capacity of liquids and glasses since these non-crystalline states lack a periodic lattice. While this lack of long-range order distinguishes liquids from solids, short-range order, on the other hand, distinguishes a liquid from a gas. Overall, the vibrational density of state of a liquid or a glass is more diffuse, but is still expected to show the main characteristics of the vibrational density of states of a crystalline compound. 

Several material properties exhibit a distinct change over the range of Tg. These properties can be classified into three major categories—thermodynamic quantities (i.e., enthalpy, heat capacity, volume, and thermal expansion coefficient), molecular dynamics quantities (i.e., rotational and translational mobility), and physicochemical properties (i.e., viscosity, viscoelastic proprieties, dielectric constant). Figure 34 schematically illustrates changes in selected material properties (free volume, thermal expansion coefficient, enthalpy, heat capacity, viscosity, and dielectric constant) as functions of temperature over the range of Tg. A number of analytical methods can be used to monitor these and other property changes and...

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was designed to obtain the enthalpy or the internal energy of those processes and also to measure temperature-dependent properties of substances, such as the heat capacity. This is done by monitoring the change of the difference between the heat flow rate or power to a sample (S) and to a reference material (R), A
